Essentials of Culturally Responsive Practice Training

Our training provides practical guidelines that can be universally adopted across organisations at all levels to prepare staff for working with participants, clients, and colleagues from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, and particularly from migrant and refugee backgrounds.

The Essentials of Culturally Responsive Practice Training syllabus is holistic and widely applicable. Training content is strengthened by the application of an intersectional lens and practical examples are informed by a lived-experience voice.
